Went snorkelling, swimming with the dolphins. Today I'm going para-sailing.
Also went fishing yesterday. Caught a Marlin, Dorado, Yellow-Fin tuna, Sheephead, Whitefish, Groupers among other fish. Going fishing again tommorow.
I'll have to come here next year again.

Yeah. It's pretty amazing here. I can't believe the number of yachts that are docked here. There's a a huge yacht type ship with a friggin helicopter on it.

Before it was raped, Cabo was beautiful. Now it's just an ugly, over-developed resort town.

The rest of Baja is far nicer. Check out Todos Santos, for example.

Some really nice catches there! I just got back from my Florida fishing trip. I didn't catch anything big but lot of small fishes. Caught couple of nice scamp groupers, various snappers, couple of amberjack and related fish. I caught boatload of red snappers but had to put all back in water because it wasn't in season. I made sashimi every night with the catch. Nothing better than the taste of freshly caught raw fish! We also ate about a case of raw oysters every night and massive amounts of shrimp. I can't wait to go back in couple of weeks!

Yeah. We were trying for red snappers yesterday but they wouldn't bite. Also tried for Roosterfish and Sierra but didn't catch any.
Speaking of red snappers, I ordered a charbroiled red snapper at a local restaurant here in Cabo and couldn't believe the enormous size of the fish they brought out on a large tray. Cost only $12 and damn it was good.

Enjoy, 80 is too hot for me ... I like a bit cooler with some snow on the ground ...
This weekend sucked, it got way too hot on Saturday and all my snow melted and then it invaded my basement. I would rather have 15 inches of snow in my yard then 2 feet of water in my window well gushing into my basement ....

I'd love to drive back down to baja, but with recent events, I'd rather not perish in a hail of gunfire or be turned into pozole en route through TJ. :)

Yeah, that's barely warm enough to go swimming. You're crazy dude.

Its about 60 outside right now, and I'm wearing thermal underwear. I miss the days of triple digit temps. Can't wait for April again.

I was just there in the beginning of the month.... but couldn't post on AT while I was there! Have a great time! If you're near the Puerto Pariso mall stop by the liquor store/outdoor cafe for a beer and an AWESOME sandwich :)

Actually I'm bothered the other way. I won't step outside of air conditioning if it's over 75. Can only do physical things that warm me up if it's between 40 and 60...at least for any length of time.

It's still here and they still are. I haven't been inside yet since I don't drink and forced tequila shots wouldn't work well with me.
I've gone to squid roe, cabo wabo among other places so far to eat.
